    Hey,

    I posted something in PI around a year back (might have been unregged), and was looking to find it. However, there's no 'search this forum' option?
    Also, the forum isn't listed on the advanced search list.
    Is there any reason for this?
    Is this the case with other forums?

    Just wonderin...

    Someone else recently reported this in feedback too! I can search PI without any problems.

    Can you see PI in the forum list in Advance search?

    It's listed in the Soc category, between Parenting and Philosophy

    Just tried it out and it worked for me, I even did a search for your username. If it helps I could search for threads started by you?

    This seems to be happening to quiet a few people and nobody has figured it out yet. The only common trait was that all the users who couldn't search it were registered users. Everyone who said they could were subscribers or mods. It's a bit of a weird one.

    If you wish to find an unregged thread by yourself, you can PM me the name you used and I'll see if I can find it for you.

    Cheers for the feedback and offers for help.
    The google search worked a treat - totally forgot about it! Cheers!
    Was just looking for something I posted about unregged nearly a year and a half ago, and things have so changed since then... for the better thankfully :)
